Distress comes in many forms: Maybe you’re struggling to cope with parts of yourself which feel ‘wrong’ or not good enough. Perhaps you feel scared and alone and wish that you could be seen and valued for just being you, and not what is expected of you. Maybe you’re not sure how you feel, or why you keep reacting to others the way you do; you just know that you don’t want to be stuck in unhelpful patterns or feel overwhelmed or out of control anymore. This list is by no means exhaustive; it is human nature to experience a range of difficulties but you don’t have to struggle alone, without support.

I help clients with their struggles, whatever they may be. I help them realise their own potential and make the changes they need to grow. I believe the relationship between the client and myself is THE most important thing in the therapy room. I hope I always provide a non-judgemental and safe environment in order for clients to sit and be their true selves.

Having several years' experience working with adults, children and young people, I can offer support to a wide age range from 13+. Reaching out for support can be incredibly overwhelming and scary. It’s very important to me to try and make this as simple and accessible as possible. I qualified as a counsellor in 2019 and have worked within mental health for over 5 years, in the charity and voluntary sector. Removing barriers to counselling support is very close to my heart and I pride myself on being a down to earth practitioner.

I appreciate that it can feel difficult in asking for help and to put trust in someone you have never met, especially with often upsetting and difficult issues. It can feel like we may have somehow failed or its a last resort in trying to resolve difficulties. I have helped many people like yourself, who also felt unsure initially on what to expect and feelings of trepidation or embarrassment in asking for help. I believe that the therapeutic relationship between counsellor and client is all important to be effective in addressing the issues and helping you to make the changes that you want and to get things back on track.

Finding a therapist starts with you and your needs. You may arrive with a sense of overwhelm, loss or anxiety, perhaps desiring change but without knowing how or believing you can. We can work together to explore how you feel, think and behave, and find a way to bring you back to your authentic self. I am able to work with adults and older teenagers (16+), as well as those training to be Psychotherapists themselves, and have a broad experience of short and long term work, presenting issues and ages, diagnoses and personalities.

I am a qualified psychotherapist working primarily within the existential model. I also use the techniques of CBT, solution-focused brief therapy and transactional analysis where appropriate. My approach is pragmatic rather than theory driven, with the aim of supporting the client in the most effective way possible to explore their situation and bring about positive change. On a personal level, I bring to the therapy room my long experience of life and its difficulties, and a philosophical perspective that draws on existentialism, Buddhism, Taoism, Stoicism and Epicureanism.
